How inexpensive for a sneaky butt?

DougT

Illustrated Principles
I've got predator 314 shaft with 3/8 x 10 for a McDermott;
I'd like to find an inexpensive butt for it. The shaft was sanded and rounded slightly at the joint, and the logo sanded off, so it's possibly a touch thin.

What should I expect to pay to have it matched to a plain butt?
Cuemakers out there?

I have a custom butt with a linen ring. I'll let it go for 75. It has a 3/8-10 pin. It looks pretty sweet. I'll take some pics if you are interested.

35 is the best deal .Some one ask 100 for a nice butt ,> like me < I say get the 35 dollars one ..
And have fun..
 
thanks, any cuemakers?

Thanks guys, I'll consider both of your offers; Obrien please send me a pic.

I'm hoping a cuemaker will let me know what he'd charge to take my shaft and make sure they match up okay.

Hello,


Well, I guess my first question would be, what wood do you want your sneaky pete to be made out of?

I have Rosewood, Bacote, purpleheart, and cocobolo for $165 w/o shaft, $215 w/shaft

Ebony for $215 w/o shaft $265 w/shaft.

All prices above include shipping.

Also if you want for an extra $50 I'll use one of our G-10 pins w/3/8-10 thread. Very soft hit.

Hope to hear from you,

Bryan Fishers offer is probably the best you're ever going to get.

That aside, this strikes me as a classic example of the tail wagging the dog. You will be hard pressed to find another reputable CM who is going to build a cue around a modified, production, laminated shaft.
